You seem to want to print $(NF-D)"-"$3"_"$(NF-E)"----"A with D equals 1 or 2 and E equals 0 or 1 depending on the field count of the line. How about considering boiling down above to something like
Code:
$0 ~ "," VF "," {L = 1
                }

!L              {next
                }

A ~ SEARCHPATT  {D == 0
                 if (NF == 10 || NF == 13)      {D = 1 
                                                 E = 0
                                                }
                 if (NF == 11 || NF == 14)      {D = 2 
                                                 E = 1
                                                }
                 F = (NF == 11 || A ~ ADDISTR)

                 if (D && F)                    print $(NF-D)"-"$3"_"$(NF-E)"----"A
                }

Why do you print the A variable if immediately afterwards remove it again?


For your $9 problem, you might want to try

Code:
{TOT = 0; for (n = split ($(NF-D), T, "="); n>1; n--) {sub (/_.*/, _, T[n]); TOT += T[n]};

and print TOT in lieu of the resp. field.
im trying to boil down the command as you suggested, but im running into issues:

Code:
gawk -v SEARCHPATT="(Wed|Tue)" -v ADDISTR="Mon|Tue|Wed|Thu|Fri|Sat|Sun" -F, '/,1484023642,/,0 {A=strftime("%a %b %d %T %Y,%s",$3); {$0 ~ "," VF "," {L = 1
                }

!L              {next
                }

A ~ SEARCHPATT  {D == 0
                 if (NF == 10 || NF == 13)      {D = 1 
                                                 E = 0
                                                }
                 if (NF == 11 || NF == 14)      {D = 2 
                                                 E = 1
                                                }
                 F = (NF == 11 || A ~ ADDISTR)
                 if (D && F)                    print $(NF-D)"-"$3"_"$(NF-E)"----"A
}
}' datafile.txt

errors I get:

Code:
gawk: /,1484023642,/,0 {A=strftime("%a %b %d %T %Y,%s",$3); {$0 ~ "," VF "," {L = 1
gawk:                                                                        ^ syntax error
